Buy wines from Lombardy

Lombardy is a large and, above all, economically extremely strong province in the north of Italy. It borders Piedmont to the west, Switzerland to the north and is flanked by Lake Garda to the east. In addition to the many lakes, the landscape is also characterised by agriculture, as the poet Virgil once wrote: "Rivers, lakes, olive trees, vines and golden fields of grain". The region has many DOCs, but the most important DOCG is probably that of Franciacorta - the cradle of Italy's best sparkling wines.
